How To Keep Your Mascara From Clumping

Every time you uncap the tube, your mascara gets drier. A great hack is to use eye drops: squeeze a few drops into the tube and shake it! (Use a new bottle of eye drops to prevent introducing bacteria into the mascara.)

WHAT IT’S MADE OF: If it’s a leather bag, it should feel dry, not oily, slippery or sticky. The handles and other hardware should be heavy, not hollow. HOW IT’S MADE: Stitching should be neat – no loose threads or back-and-fore stitching towards the end of the seam.

DETAILING: The bag should have quality clasps and zips, and patterns that match precisely. In counterfeits, the brand name is often printed in the wrong font or even misspelt.

WHAT’S ITS NUMBER?

A serial number is the most important mark of authenticity. The label with the number is sealed and attached to the bag so it’s impossible to remove. Counterfeits often have a glued-on sticker.
